Raising Grampy – Chapter 1
Hi everybody! My name is Liam and I’m — uh — I don’t know how old I am because I can’t count yet. I can’t even get my fingers to do what I want. I keep poking myself. Gotta work on that. I live in Virginia Beach with my mommy and daddy. They’re names are…

A New Year Brings A New Role
·
I come to you from Virginia Beach today, not from another vacation trip to see my grandson though he is a big part of this story. After my daughter and son-in-law found out they were expecting, they began thinking of Sarah’s return to work. Her company offered four months maternity leave so they realized they…

Woof Wednesday
Hi guys! It’s me….Oscar the Beagle. I got in trouble the other day. Yeah. In my own defense (It seems I say that a lot), I thought that anything within my reach was fair game. Grammy was cleaning out the refrigerator the other day, something I’ve offered to do for her several times. She took…

A January To-Do List
·
I think I’ve mentioned before how I am a list-maker. Always have been. And since I had my stroke, I’ve found it’s even more helpful since I tend to forget some things, plus, it’s a great sense of accomplishment when you can check something off. “Yes! I did that!” I came across a list the…

Woof Wednesday
Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle and I guess I’m supposed to say “Happy New Year!” It’s a new year, though nobody told me what was wrong with the old one. I’m still in my same house, with the same bowl and the same food. I don’t see what’s new but all the humans…

It's Almost Christmas and Times Keep Changing
It’s almost Christmas! That brings a sense of excitement! It’s also almost 2020! That brings a sense of amazement! I was thinking last night about how much Christmas has changed and how much the world has changed as we head for a new decade. I remember Christmas as a child. We used to get so…

Throwback Thursday – A Christmas Thought
·
This is a column I wrote for The Standard Times in December 2016. I think I’ve always loved Christmas. When I was a child it was always that wonderful time of year when I hoped Santa hadn’t seen my brother Jeff and I fighting, everybody fights a little right? Christmas morning was always magical. My…

Woof Wednesday
All I can say is, ” What.The.Heck?” (I’m not allowed to swear.) Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. We’re getting ready for Christmas. The house is all decorated. Yeah this guy is at the foot of my bed. Nothing like a little nightmare inspiration huh? The front room has been loaded with stuff. All…

Baby Loves His Tunes
We’re Talkin’ Tunes on this Tuesday. The other day I mentioned in a blog that my grandson Liam has his own playlist and I thought I would explain because I used it again today and it’s so cool. For those of you who don’t “do” Spotify or any of the other streaming services, let me…
